I use the browse-url package. Here is my config

(global-set-key "\C-c\C-z." 'browse-url-at-point)
(global-set-key "\C-c\C-zb" 'browse-url-of-buffer)
(global-set-key "\C-c\C-zr" 'browse-url-of-region)
(global-set-key "\C-c\C-zu" 'browse-url)
(global-set-key "\C-c\C-zv" 'browse-url-of-file)

(add-hook 'dired-mode-hook
                  (lambda ()
                        (local-set-key "\C-c\C-zf" 'browse-url-of-dired-file)))

(provide 'tc-browse-url)

I also customize the default browser settings so that it uses my
preferred browser. Use M-x customize-group <ret> browse-url <ret>
